We are huge picture takers. We scrapbook a lot of them and others are displayed throughout our home either framed on the wall or sitting on bookcases and coffee tables. Some of our photos have been put on coffee mugs and even a mouse pad. We took about a thousand photos during our week long cruise vacation, and I wanted to do something special with them for Christmas gifts. I decided to create several different items at MailPix.com as gifts, and it is so hard to choose my favorite!
I made a fleece blanket for my daughter for Christmas, and although she knows she is getting the blanket, she has no idea which photo I chose, so I cannot post it here until after Christmas! The blanket is large enough for her to use as a throw, and was actually larger than I expected.
The second item I made was a pillow case for Kat. This photo was taken on the cruise of Kat and our waiter. He was wonderful and she just loved him. The pillow case is soft and as you can see, the photo looks great. No distortions at all!
I also made ornaments for the entire family in memory of my Daddy who passed away earlier this year. The ornaments are 3"x3" and are porcelain. They are a wonderful quality item!
There are so many great items to choose from at MailPix, it was hard to decide what to make. The turnaround time was very quick. I had my items within 10 days.
